EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print showcases the "Ancient Hospice" or "Santos Fernandes" in Madrid, Spain, as depicted by the renowned Spanish Baroque painter Pedro de Ribera in the early 18th century. The image captures the grandeur and intricacy of the Baroque architectural style that dominated European art and design during this period. The doorway, with its ornate carvings and elaborate columns, serves as the focal point of the composition, inviting the viewer to explore the history and significance of this ancient institution. The Hospice of Santo Fernando, founded in 1496, was a charitable institution dedicated to providing shelter and care for the sick and the poor. Over the centuries, it underwent numerous expansions and renovations, resulting in the impressive Baroque façade that can be seen in Ribera's painting. The hospice was also known for its beautiful gardens, which were a popular destination for visitors and pilgrims. Ribera's masterful use of light and shadow, as well as his attention to detail, bring the ancient hospice to life in this work of art. The print offers a glimpse into the past, transporting the viewer to a time when the arts and architecture were used to celebrate the beauty and wonder of the world around us. The image is a testament to the enduring legacy of Ribera and the Baroque tradition, and a reminder of the rich history and cultural heritage of Spain.
